troubles with pure candy in such
a manner as to make a medicine,
while very pleasant to the taste,
yet effective in its work. II
costs but a trife. The chill
dren consider it treat to get
it to eat, and yet it takes the
place of the costly syrups and
troches manufactured. Mr.. May
nard has been manufacturing this
candy and using it for years, and
has hundreds of testimonials from
physicians and patients wherever
he has sol4 it, speaking in the
highest terms of its efficacy as a
medicine. 1t is splendid for
coughs, &C ids and hoarseness, and
pelen mel led and taken as syrup
will cure roup. 1t gives US great
pleasure to publish the following

DIR. F. A. GROVE, of Kirksville,
says: Il cheerfully endorse the
above"
DIR. GooDsoN, of Macon City,
says: at is tonic and expector-
ant and very strengthening to the

DIR. I. S. RUBY, formerly of
Macon City, but now of Lebanon,

edly saved me and my son from a
spell of pneumonia. 1 will further

on the point Of surprising King williams

wrens. attracted probably by the frag-

Use Short Pen Haudlea.

"a man cannot write rapidly or grace
fully with long handled pen," SO said one Of
the most rapid penmen in this city to re-
porter. "The reason is that in describing the
curves Of the various letters the long handle
must describe similar curves. and the longer
the handle the more sweeping the curves. In
writing the thumb and fore6nger act as a full
crum. The pen handle is a lever. Now it
stands to reason the longer the lever the
slower will be its motions. That is a law of
natural philosophy, and yet many men will
persist in using long pen handles. The proper
length for a pen handle is about an inch
longer than the index finger. New York

Fargo d. L. OCT. THE arrest OF
Division Superintendent Graham, OF the

tion OF bitter fight between MIR. Hawks
OF Buffalo, Dak ;, and OF this city and OF
the northern Pacific road. Mr.. Hawks
was refused cars for his wheat, SO be
claims, and he then put the grain into
sacks and delivered them at the depot as
common freight. He filed the platform
and piled the bags up in the waiting
room until the depot agent could hs rdly
find room to breathe. Then the railroad
company offered him cars to load his
wheat, but he wanted to empty the
sacks and ship the wheat IN bulk The
company refused to sllow him this, and
after wards, Mr.. Hawk says, refused to
give him cars to ship the sacks. B Q then
caused the arrest of Division Superln-
tendent Graham. Graham was arrested
under the interstate commerce law

The grain law of Dakotr makes il tn.
duty OF the railroads to furnish oais te

tirst made his demand for cars under thil
provision of the law.
